The filter is located Under the unit in most air handlers, in a manufactures filter track, this is pretty universal from one air handler branding to the next. On most furnace installations you most likely will cut either 1 or both of the sides out of the furnaces blower compartment. This means you must remove the furnaces main door, then remove the two hex head screws in the blower door's front or top usually 5/16th hex head at top edge.
Open the furnace and check to see if the filter is located within. It should be neatly pinned in place with a thin metal wire, running from rear to front that clips inside and against the side of the furnace near the front.
Then there is the last kind of set up where we embed a filter track external to the equipment and with in the run of return ducting you may also use return filter grills in walls and ceiling where the main return louvers originate.
